Research carried out by the Swiss confectioner, Ricola, has suggested that residents of Wales need to up their flower giving game! The infographic below shows some of the shocking statistics - in our best Princess Bride-esque manner, all we can say is, "Inconceivable"!

The research went on to suggest that only 1% of Welsh people receive flowers weekly, in contrast to London where 39% of people receive a floral gift once a month or more.​

It also revealed that one fifth of men say they are embarrassed to receive flowers and 40% of men said they have never received flowers in their lives.

Ricola were obviously so moved by the results of their research that they carried out a publicity stunt yesterday, leaving hundreds of bouquets dotted around the streets of Cardiff, free for the lucky finders to keep. You can read all about it here.

It made us wonder whether the suggested results of their research are accurate?

We'd love to know what you think - Do you receive flowers more than once a year? Are you a man who loves to receive flowers? Do you give flowers to the man in your life? Are you one of the people who has never received flowers?
